Laminate flooring in the Eixample: what we lay it over
In 1960s and 70s flats in areas such as La Dreta de l'Eixample and L'Antiga Esquerra de l'Eixample the terrazzo is usually sound but worn, and laminate can go straight over it. That means no rubble carried down narrow stairs and far less noise in the building.
In homes across areas such as La Nova Esquerra de l'Eixample and Sant Antoni we decide plank direction by where the light comes in and the shape of the room. The offcut is split so the last rows along the wall are not left too narrow.
The site manager plans clearing the rooms in turn, and when we finish we vacuum and take away packaging and offcuts. We lay laminate in the surrounding areas too: Gràcia, Sant Martí and Ciutat Vella.

Frequently asked questions
01Laminate flooring installation in the Eixample: which areas do you cover?
We work in the Eixample in areas such as La Dreta de l'Eixample, L'Antiga Esquerra de l'Eixample, La Nova Esquerra de l'Eixample, Sant Antoni, La Sagrada Família and El Fort Pienc, and also nearby: Gràcia, Sant Martí and Ciutat Vella.
02Can laminate go over existing tiles?
Yes, if the tiles are sound and the floor is flat. It sits on an underlay, so nothing needs breaking up; the floor rises slightly and doors sometimes need trimming.
03Which laminate works in a kitchen or bathroom?
One with a water-resistant core and sealed joints. Even so, next to the shower or bath we recommend porcelain tiles.
04What does the AC rating mean?
It shows wear resistance. AC4 is usually enough for a home; shops and busy areas are better with AC5.
